    I didn't read the thread, but he said he's fighting for a few more years, until 35? not sure, so all of these he fight and even more.

    Over on b-scene, Roach said he's never letting Manny fight at 140 again. His reasoning, that Manny's happy when he doesn't have to drop weight, doesn't seem to make much sense since I'm always hearing about Pac eating 7 meals a day and getting up during the night to drink protein shakes, just to stay around 145.

    Whatever the reason, it seems that his future fights will be at 147. That rules out JMM for me, since there's no way he should ever fight above 140 (I think 135 is actually his limit).

    Fighting Martinez would be madness and I just can't see it happening.

    If it's not Floyd, I'm finding it hard to get excited about his other options.

    I read some posts in other threads where some posters prefer a Pac - Mosley fight over the young ones because they say that the young ones are not ready for Pac.

    After that KO landed by Martinez, I want Pac to fight him next. This is the biggest challenge for Pac if not Floyd.

    Having said that, I think that fight would be 65/35 in favor of Martinez.

    Juan Manuel Marquez, for me. I would love to see a third fight, especially at a weight that Marquez is still good. I say no higher than 140lbs. I don't expect to see that fight.

    Pac fights Mosely or Marquez and he gets ZERO credit for a win against 2 shot ATGs

    Pac fights Bradley or Berto and he gets little credit for wins against decent but UNPROVEN fighters

    Pac fights Martinez - and WIN OR LOSE - he gets universal respect

    Martinez then retire. Win or lose, it cement his legacy for me.

    Bradley.

    I believe Bradley will beat Alexander, and I really really want to see Pac at 140 again before he retires. He looked mighty special there vs Hatton.

    i would honestly like martinez for pac at 154 and pac challenge himself once more again like he always does and i give him a chance of edging martinez even with at least 20 pounds of weight difference on fight night. it's doable and possible with pac's skill but he would not come out of it without damage and this is the part that is all wrong. after this fight and pac barely survived (assuming he pulls this one), floyd will suddenly have the urge to fight pac, knowing he was damaged enough and would get the glory of beating the guy who beat martinez and single-handedly cleaned the welterweight divisions top guys.
